Answer:

Height of the brick portion of the wall is 5.61 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Employees of the landscaping company used brick to build the top 2/3 of the wall. The total dimensions of the wall are 8 and 1/2 * 2 and 3/4 feet. So the height of the wall = 8 and 1/2 feet or in other words 8.75 feet.

Height of the brick portion of the wall = 2/3 * 8.5 = 0.66 * 8.5 = 5.61 feet

So the height of the brick portion of the wall is 5.61 feet.

Non brick portion of the wall is 8.5 - 5.61 = 2.89
